Change password (third-party applications)

 

Overview

Third-party application users (for programs like WordPress, Joomla, or MediaWiki) are managed by the application itself — DreamHost cannot view or reset their passwords. You reset a third-party application password through the program you use to run the site. This article explains how.

Background

Third-party application users are created only to access a website program. For example, you can create users to log in to your WordPress, Joomla, or MediaWiki site.

DreamHost has no control over third-party user passwords. Because of this, DreamHost support is unable to provide details about a password or reset it for you.
